<p>I've seen this "mistake" happened a couple of times now, e.g. <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/69471" target="_blank" title="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/69471">https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/69471</a><br>
People try to <code>r? a_team</code>. Is there a reason that rust highfive ignores/doesn't understand this? If not, it seems like a useful change, right?</p>

<p>Also useful when a team member wants to reassign to another team member at random. Because as we all know, humans are bad at randomness.</p>

<p>yes, and it's not likely to be in highfive I think, trivial once we migrate to triagebot</p>

<p>Unfortunately, this code is written in python, so that makes it much more bug prone and harder to contribute to</p>
